"Nothing is permanent in this wicked world, not even our worries" Charlie ChaplinThe Crystal Gazer
I shall gather myself into my self again
I shall take my scattered selves and make them one
I shall fuse them into a polished crystal ball
Where I can see the moon and the flashing sun
I shall sit like a sibyl, hour after hour intent
Watching the future come and the present go
And the little shifting pictures of people rushing
In tiny self importance to and fro..
-Sara Teasdale
